That’s right, Kant had some impression.

  Look at those demon troops behind the city walls, strangling the game Kant was once familiar with.

  “Invincible hero”

  The dark red demon was nearly half a meter tall and looked like a sturdy dwarf. It was flapping the small wings on its back and was rapidly jumping forward. It was holding a black cast iron short fork, and its eyes were full of cunning and cruelty.

  In Kant’s eyes, it was really like the most basic troop class of Hell in the game, the demon infant!

  There was a slight commotion among the troops that were recruited by the system.

  This was not an ordinary enemy.

  They had never encountered such a demon troop before, let alone start a war.

  Although the 188 Swadian heavy calvary had a similar experience.

  It was a war against the expedition army of the Kingdom of Gray Mane. However, the Jackalan were different from the demons. For example, the demons that were currently appearing on the ruins of the city walls, their strange appearances, and the evil aura that they were emitting, they looked like they were having a heart attack!

  Although they did not fear death, many of the soldiers were still nervous.

  This was the fear towards the legendary creatures.

  The mage apprentices were students to begin with. They were still in the internship period and could not be considered real mages.

  Hence, their morale and psychological quality were low.

  Standing behind Kant, the seven mage apprentices reminded him in a panic, “That’s…… that’s the imp. It’s the most typical troop class of cannon fodder in the forces of Hell. Although it looks weak, its strength, speed, and agility are far stronger than the average human peasant. Even the militia would not be able to fight against these imps.”

  “Yes, I understand.” Kant nodded calmly.

  One could tell just by looking at the Imps’ bodies.

  Although they were short, they were as strong as tree stumps. Their thighs and arms, as well as the skin under their chests, were filled with muscles.

  The two wings on their backs were not decorative.

  When the wings flapped vigorously, they could even bring in a gust of wind. As the infantile imps hopped on their hind legs like antelopes, they provided additional support. They could even provide a short gliding ability, allowing them to fly seven meters away.

  It was indeed as the mage apprentices had said, their agility and speed were very strong.

  But what made Kant even more worried was behind them.

  The long-horned demon.

  Although its body was bent, it was nearly three meters tall, and the muscles all over its body were protruding clearly.

  Its thick arms hung on the ground, and a number of sharp spikes grew on its broad back, from its neck to its spine. Its front hands were like beast claws, much thicker than its hind legs, and also had a dark metallic luster. As it roared, it spewed out a little black smoke, looking ferocious and terrifying, his eyes were as violent and crazy as a demon’s.

  It was obvious that the long-horned demons, who did not have any weapons, relied on brute force and brutal emotions to fight.

  “This is not an optimistic battle.”

  Kant spoke slowly.

  Although these demons from hell were in a messy formation, or rather, there was no so-called formation at all, they were still the number one enemy by relying on their brutal and crazy fearlessness.

  It was comparable to the Jackalan Expeditionary Army that Drondheim had encountered when he was still a fortress.

  The only exception.

  Perhaps it was because the number of demons from hell was relatively small.

  “Yes, it’s not optimistic.”

  Bandake nodded and said calmly, “We will do our best.”

  “Very good.” Kant chuckled.

  That was enough.

  He turned his head to look behind him with a grim expression. There was a determination to sacrifice in his gloomy eyes. He took a deep breath, he said in a deep voice, “In this battle, we can only choose to win because behind us is Aaron and Drondheim. There is no way out. It is impossible for us to choose to compromise.”

  With his legs tightly clamped on his warhorse, Kant pointed the knight’s sword in his right hand to the front while his left hand held the horn tightly. He shouted in a deep voice, “There is no excuse to escape. We are all for victory!”

  “For victory!”

  The many soldiers behind him let out a furious roar as if they were venting their anger.

  And then, the battle began.

  The golden lion on the red bottom began to flutter in the air. The flag fluttered even though there was no wind, as if it was being blown by a strong wind!

  The troops that were already in formation began to push forward.

  The archers were in the front while the infantrymen were at the back. The cavalry occupied the two wings. It was a conventional battle formation.

  It was close to a range of 200 meters.

  At the very front, the Archers of Ravenston were the first to draw their bows and shoot arrows. There were a total of 87 Rangers and Patrollers. Among them, there were 47 Rangers of Raveston who were archery masters and had excellent archery skills!

  “Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh –”

  In an instant, a rain of arrows formed by conical arrows rained down continuously.

  They were the first to attack!

  Kant and the others would not pay attention to their manners with the Hell Demons.

  What they wanted was for them to use the rain of arrows to continuously attack the enemies before they formed a formation when they left the city wall. This would weaken the enemy’s morale at the same time!

  According to Kant’s understanding, although the demons were violent and crazy, they also had brains to think.

  This meant that they also had morale!

  The mage apprentices from the Emfath Empire had already reported this point.

  The rain of arrows that fell on them instantly caused many of the little demons that were jumping at the front to collapse. They let out strange cries and occasionally, there would be arrows that hit the salt mines directly. The Arrows went straight into their brains, making these little demons seem vicious and cunning as well, the Imps who were like brutal terrorists were instantly fatal.

  It seemed that even the imps were like flesh and blood, with fatal points!

  This was good news.

  Kant raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled, but his face was still calm. He pointed the Knight’s sword in his right hand forward and ordered in a deep voice, “Bandake, lead the crossbowmen and shoot freely!”

  “Understood!”

  Bandake answered in a low voice.

  Raising the siege crossbow in his hand, the 20 Rhodoks sniper crossbowmen beside him also raised their own siege crossbows.

  The steel bolts that were meticulously forged by Luo duoke were all made of steel. They were already stuck in the firing slot of the siege crossbow. As they aimed at the wall where the imp and the long-horned demon came out, they pulled the trigger heavily.

  “Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang –”

  The fine and powerful bowstring vibrated violently.

  Between the slightly parabolic trajectory of the cone arrow, the straight silver light instantly tore through the void and appeared in front of the IMP who was still jumping!

  It was a steel bolt shot by the siege crossbow.

  After being shot by the siege crossbow, this kind of steel bolt was extremely powerful and had an extremely strong aftershock.

  Even the head of the Imp in the front row could not withstand the steel crossbow that came in an instant. It was pierced through and crushed the brain matter in the head. From the inside out, the back of the head was sent flying, bringing along the white brain matter and bright red blood, it splashed all over the bodies of the surrounding demons.

  The power of the steel crossbow actually killed the imp instantly!

  “Continue shooting!”

  Kant, however, still gave the order in a deep voice.

  Now was not the time to be excited. Although they knew that the demon army still had flesh and blood, and were creatures that could be killed by ordinary means, their numbers were simply too many!

  So many that Kant could not even imagine!

  At the ruins of the city wall, the enormous abyss demon had already left, seemingly uninterested in the following battle.

  However, a large number of demon troops appeared in the square.

  They were howling and roaring in a simple and strange demon language. They began to push forward in Kant’s direction. Less than 200 meters away, the dark mass of red and black demons was almost like a tide. There were also many demonized creatures mixed within, the wanton roars were obviously driven by these demons.

  According to Kant’s estimation, the number of imps was close to 500, the number of long-horned demons was close to 200, and the number of demonic creatures mixed with them was also close to 500.

  Overall, Kant’s army was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers!

  Even if the rain of arrows poured down, the bolts were extremely fast, and a large number of imps and demonic creatures fell.

  However, the entire demon army that was pressing down on them had yet to suffer a severe blow.

  After all, there were more than a thousand of them. The ones at the front were the low-level imps and the beast-like demonized creatures. Clearly, the long-horned demons that were the main force of the war had yet to be injured.

  Even if they were hit by the AWL arrows, if they were not vital parts, they would casually wave their hands and pull them out. The muscles on the bodies of these long-horned demons were the best armor. They did not care at all!

  The distance of 200 meters was not far to begin with.

  Under the rain of arrows and bolts, more and more imps and demonized creatures were approaching the 50-meter area.

  The long-horned demons, who were good at close combat, shrank back.

  The battle mentality of this group of demons was very clear.

  It was to follow the imps and demonized creatures as cannon fodder and let the long-horned demons get close to the enemy’s front line. Then, they would use their burly and strong bodies to wreak havoc among the enemy, completely destroying the enemy’s line of defense, crushing the enemy’s will to resist, and gaining the initiative on the battlefield, thus, they would win!

  To the demons, the imps with low combat power were cannon fodder.

  As for the demonized creatures that were nurtured with demon blood and wild beasts, they were not even cannon fodder.

  If it was not for the fact that the Lord of the Great Abyss had just broken the seal and awakened, and all the power that had dissipated was in this underground city and could not be recovered, they could only use this power to transform wild beasts into the lowest-level demon servants and beasts to make up for the current lack of military strength!

  If it was thousands of years ago, when Hell was at war with the gods, even the long-horned demons were cannon fodder, and the Lord of the Abyss was an existence that could be sacrificed. The battle situation was so tragic that it was close to genocide.

  Now, it was just a small fight.

  As the supreme lord of the demons of hell, the King of Evil, and the ruler of the flames,.

  Ameng Qieke disdained to watch such a battle.

  Humans, in his eyes, were once the servant race of the gods. No, it should be said that they were a slave race, born weak humans. On the battlefield, facing the Devils, the troops almost collapsed at the touch. Only the troops formed by the blood descendants of the Gods could resist the attacks of the Devils.

  Correspondingly, if an army formed by humans launched an attack, the demons would not even care about it. They would just casually send out the lowest-level demon army to deal with it.

  From ancient times until now, it was the upper-level demons and blood descendants of the gods that were the true main force of the battlefield!

  Chapter 242: The Charge That Would Determine the Battle Outcome

  The Imps, who were in greater numbers, flapped their wings and leaped up.

  Their dwarf-like bodies were like agile springboks. They began to glide with the help of the wings on their backs. Their hands gripped tightly onto the short iron pitchforks. When they were about to come into contact with Kant’s troops, they actually burst out with extremely fast speed.

  They ran at high speed. When they were about to approach the enemy’s formation, they would jump and glide, using inertia to charge at the enemy’s troops.

  This was the tactic that the imps were used to!

  If the ordinary human troops, such as the enlisted peasant and armed militia, did not have enough training and had low morale, it was estimated that the imps would not be able to hold on for long as they glided and charged like flying. Their morale would plummet due to the continuous casualties on their side, in the end, they would flee until the entire line line line collapsed under the impact.

  Such a tactic was similar to cavalry charging, but it was also similar to the long lance soldiers standing side by side. The aim was to eliminate the enemy line and cause chaos to the entire army.

  One had to know that the long horned demons at the rear were the main force of the battle. The strength of their two arms was enough to tear apart the human body!

  They were caught in close combat and chaotic battle.

  The human troops were never the ones who had the advantage.

  It was the demons who had extremely strong physical attributes, high combat strength, cruel and violent personalities, and were almost crazy!

  Although the long-horned demons were inferior demons, their physical attributes were very high.

  It was enough to be compared to the Jackalan.

  It was not the low-level Jackalan who lacked food and clothing and drank raw meat and blood, but the high-level Jackalan who lived on the Mannheim coast and had sufficient food and nutrition. They had undergone strict military training!

  In terms of physique and figure, the long-horned demon was not at a disadvantage!

  “Prepare for battle!”

  Bandake pulled out the Teutonic sword behind his back, his expression grim.

  As the imp and the demonized creature rapidly approached, Rhodoks’s sniper crossbowmen, the Ravenston Rangers, and the Ravenston Patrollers all began to retreat to the sides.

  At the same time, 40 Rhodoks sergeants had brought 200 Rhodoks proficient spear-wielders in front of them.

  240 people formed a phalanx of spears.

  Rhodoks’s proficient spear-wielding soldiers bowed slightly. In front of the three rows were dense and sharpened spearheads. The three-meter-long spear was raised diagonally, just in time to aim at the approaching imp who was flapping its wings and gliding towards them at high speed.

  “For Lord Kant!”

  The uniform movements of the spears instantly thrust out.

  Countless sharp spears stabbed out at an extremely fast speed in a small area.

  “Ga ga ga……”

  The Imp at the front let out a sorrowful cry. The cunning and cruelty in its eyes turned into fear and uneasiness along with the rapidly approaching spear. It flapped its wings and wanted to fly to the side, but the three rows of spears in front of it were like chopping boards, giving them nowhere to run!

  Even the demonized creatures that were running parallel to each other and roaring as they pounced over, similarly received the three rows of spear heads that were raised horizontally and diagonally. In a very small area, there was nowhere to run and they could only receive the stab of the spear.

  “Puff Puff Puff Puff Puff Puff –”

  The tip of the spear pierced deeply into the Imps’ body.

  The thick and long spear did not allow the gliding imps to appear in front of them at all. Relying on the inertia of the gliding imps, as well as the force of the sudden thrust, they were instantly pierced into meat skewers.

  “Ga ga ga……”

  Unpleasant howls continued to be heard.

  The vitality of these imps was tenacious. Many of them struggled and flapped their wings even though their chests and abdomens were pierced, twisting their bodies back and forth on the raised spear, hoping to pull themselves off the spear.

  However, the final result was that a large amount of dark red blood splattered all over the stone floor beneath their feet, dyeing it with fluorescent moss that could be seen everywhere. It was blood-red and very terrifying!

  “Prepare close-range weapons!”

  Bandake’s orders continued to appear. His voice was clear and calm.

  “Understood!” Rhodoks’s infantrymen, who had yet to suffer any casualties, responded. They immediately gave up on the spear that had already pierced through countless imps and demonized creatures. With a flip of their hands, they placed the wide shield and wide shield on their backs on their left arms. At the same time, their right hands had already pulled out their spiked warhammers and held them tightly. They coldly looked at the long-horned demons that were crowding over and shouted, “Kill!”

  They did not raise their weapons high and take a step forward. Instead, their left arm moved forward, allowing the wide shield and wide shield that were made of wood and leather nails to stand in front of them like a small door.

  They placed their shoulders behind the door and arranged themselves into the shape of a city wall. They gritted their teeth and let out angry roars. As the long-horned demons crashed heavily into them, they used all their strength to push forward.

  “Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang –”

  Muffled sounds reverberated, and the long-horned demons rammed fiercely.

  Rhodoks soldiers were in the middle, and on both sides were Rhodoks’s skilled spear-wielders. They could use broad shields and broad shields to form a seemingly indestructible shield wall, but under the frenzied ramming of the long-horned demons……, it was still as if he had been charged by the Swadian heavy calvary, and they were forced to retreat in an instant.

  The entire defensive shield wall was in disarray, and at the front row, Rhodoks’s most refined broad shield even had a few cracks and dents. His left arm was trembling, and he was temporarily powerless.

  The long-horned demon’s charge was simply too strong!

  Rhodoks soldiers and the proficient spear-wielder had looks of shock on their faces. Only by coming into contact with it did they truly understand the power of the demon.

  Ordinary humans were truly unable to resist it.

  Just by looking at the current close combat situation, their hearts had fallen into an abyss!

  The long-horned demon’s close combat was simply too strong. Its metallic lustrous arms waved like two of the heaviest heavy hammers, whizzing down. If they were unable to dodge in time or did not use their shields to block it, even the Rhodoks’s face was flushed red as he was sent flying to the side, spitting out large mouthfuls of blood.

  It was even mixed with fresh blood, and it looked like he was going to die!

  Blunt force was not something that could only stun people in the game. In reality, it was a powerful attack that was comparable to stabbing and slashing. Once a heavy weapon was used to blunt force, the powerful force would be transmitted to the weak body, and it was enough to shatter the internal organs.

  The two sets of heavy mail armor on the soldier, plus the light leather armor and linen coat, were still unable to block the long horned demon’s blunt force!

  Not to mention those skilled spear-wielding soldiers who only wore mail armor and leather coats.

  The long-horned demons were cheering.

  In just a short moment, nearly 30 human infantrymen were smashed to the ground, and even more infantrymen were injured in varying degrees.

  The imps and demonized creatures had already charged in.

  Relying on the might of the long-horned demons, Kant’s entire infantrymen formation was in a mess.Rhodoks’s infantrymen, who were already at a disadvantage in numbers, even began to become unstable with the attacks of the demon troops.

  The battle situation was extremely dangerous.

  “Wooo –”

  The dull sound of a horn suddenly sounded behind them.

  With some length, the sound of the horn entered the ears of the many Rhodoks infantry soldiers.

  Kant blew the [ commanding power ] !

  Mysterious system rules instantly spread out, directly appearing in the bodies of the many infantry soldiers, stabilizing their morale and at the same time rousing their emotions.

  Their Hearts were beating rapidly, and Rhodoks’s infantrymen, who had been knocked into a mess, and who had been forced to raise their shields in vain, and who had been forced to retreat by the long-horned demons with their claws, actually steadied their steps, bending forward to hold on, with their high morale, they maintained the crumbling line!

  “For victory, for Lord Kant, Let’s fight with blood!”

  Bandake took the opportunity to shout.

  “Let’s fight with blood!”

  Rhodoks’s infantrymen responded at the same time. They roared and withstood the onslaught. Like giant hammers, they pulled out their own Warhammer at the same time and fiercely hammered at their waists.

  Warhammer was the evolution of the pickaxe. It was the most popular close-range weapon used by the Kingdom of Rhodoks and the Kingdom of Swadia.

  It was small and easy to carry.

  It moved quickly, and the tip of the crane’s beak had the ability to pierce through armor.

  Now, as the Rhodoks infantrymen continued to wave at the chest and abdomen of the long-horned demon with the dark red tough skin, the sharp crane’s beak immediately pierced through the tough skin and tore with all its might, the sharpened and sharp blade directly cut through the skin from the inside out. It pulled down fiercely, directly cutting out terrifying wounds.

  Dark red blood immediately spilled out, mixed with intestines and other internal organs that flowed out. They were immediately crushed by other demons or Rhodoks’s infantrymen. The stench of blood filled the ground, reflecting the increasingly tragic scene of the battlefield.

  “Sharp Golden Blade!”

  The mage apprentices raised their magic staffs from behind. After a few incantations, they quickly cast spells that they knew.

  Status spells were especially important for the infantrymen who were engaged in melee combat.

  A faint golden light appeared on the spiked Warhammer and pickaxe, allowing Rhodoks’s infantrymen to wield their weapons and Pierce through the tough skin of the long-horned demons more easily.

  “Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh –”

  The continuous rain of arrows continued to appear.

  Luo duoke’s sniper crossbowmen who had already spread out to the two wings, as well as the Rangers and rangers from Riverston, began to cover the battlefield with continuous rain of arrows. They aimed at the demon troops that were still charging at Luo duoke’s infantrymen and were entangled in the melee combat, the unbridled pouring of arrows and the use of super long-range attacks forcefully interrupted the long-horned demons that were still trying to continue charging.

  The siege crossbows, coupled with steel crossbows, could easily pierce through the long-horned demons’skulls. After all, the distance between the two sides was less than 50 meters, and it was even easier to pierce through their skin.

  The heavy bows of the Rangers and Patrollers of Raventon were the same.

  When paired with Awl Arrows, they were like semi-automatic rifles. With a slight aim, one arrow after another was shot out.

  The damage to the long-horned demons and imps was even more than the damage caused by the Rhodoks infantrymen. In particular, the left and right sides formed a crossfire. One could clearly see that the demons that were being entangled by the Rhodoks infantrymen were shot from the sides and behind, the neck and the back of the head were the main targets of the archery masters!

  After the sound of the [ commanding power ] , which stabilized the soldiers’ formation, the demons’ offensive suddenly weakened. After being caught in close combat between the infantry formations, the demons’ wild and violent fighting talent could no longer be used.

  Although Kant’s troops were still at a disadvantage, and there were still Rhodoks’s infantrymen falling everywhere.

  But now, it seemed to be enough.

  Rhodoks’s square formation, which was used as a chopping board, firmly trapped the demon army. Next, it meant that the Swadian heavy calvary, who had the sharpest kitchen knives, were about to launch the final attack that could affect the battle situation.

  Among Kant’s battle sequences, the strongest were, of course, his heavy cavalry troops!
